We absolutely want to represent their stadium correctly and plan to re-engage them once we wrap Madden NFL 10 to see if we can get past the rights issues that are currently in place. Phil

Tell them to put in on the Ballet!

Well maybe not they might want to raise the taxes another .5% for the cost of adding on the ballet!

You know they would need to hire the other half of their family and put them on salary for such a complicated task.

so, you were saying?

I just don't understand that at all. Wouldn't it be in the best interest of the city of Chicago to have their professional football team accurately represented in a game that sells millions?

thats what i think why the hell give the licence out and then people will see the stadium and the stuff that is in the windy city! but this isnt a hate thread to the goverment of chi-town but there shud be some ting there that they shud c that would they want to make peple go there............

Then how come the stadium was a better representation in NFL 2k5? Just wondering, because it was the same deal back then, yet they managed to make the stadium look alot more like the real thing without getting tied up in legal tape. And so do the last gen versions of Madden!

Why can't you guys do the same? Don't understand why last gen Maddens and NFL 2k5 could do it. I know you can't make it look EXACT, but it could look a bit closer than what you have now. But it looks as though EA has made no effort to improve "Chicago Stadium" at all. For the love of all things holy, at least eliminate those hideous, huge colonnades that you have visible inside of the stadium next to the luxury boxes. Those are a huge eye sore that are not anywhere close to what the real thing looks like. Just eliminating those would be an upgrade...
